Christchurch Airport

The Christchurch airport is open 24/7. The lobby area is available for passengers to use from 10pm to 3:30am - some people trying to save money or those with early morning flights use the lobby area of the airport. They either sleep on the empty chairs and corners, have an early coffee of watch news. There is a free 30 minute internet access in the airport. The 30 minute access renews and you can use it again after 4 hours. You just need to bring your own laptop. Otherwise, you can use the computer kiosks, you would have to pay $1 to $2 to use it.

The departure section is a bit old and the 2nd floor cafe is strikingly out of date. It's usable though. There are a bit of cafes you can try on the 2nd floor. The food is nothing special, it's reasonably priced though.

The arrival area is much more impressive.

Renovations are being done to improve the whole airport.

The closest suburb to the Christchurch airport is Riccarton... not all hotels are decent so make sure you read online reviews before committing to a place.
